After a week-long vacation in Colorado and a summer jam-packed with shows, I am settling into fall and enjoying these quiet weeks leading up to the holiday madness. I realize this blog has taken a beating during the last few months and I hope to change that in the months ahead. Slowly, but surely, I am getting better at managing my schedule and I plan to use the little time I find here and there to share more with you.

And, since I have the tendency to overcommit myself, I plan to post 2 or so times a week until it becomes more of a habit. For starters, I wanted to share some of my latest favorites from Etsy. I think the cooler days are drawing me towards these moody grays. I especially love the textures and how well each item looks on a neutral background. As my tastes evolve, I hope that one day my home will be a blank canvas filled with beautiful items like these.
